I'm good with these most the time. There was one time (and only one) that I took the nonverbal interaction to be one where she would not own her portion of stuff. That was fairly early on and it might have just been my perception - where I was at the time as I was in a "rebellious" mindset.
Yeah, I "read into" things all the time; it's something I really have struggled with in the past and have also been in a rebellious mindset. However, in the horrid appointment, at first I was way surprised at her approach, then kind of pushing back and questioning her. Then, when I learned that, yes, T really does want to play the "devil's advocate" rather than seeing things from my perspective, I just kind of shut down.

Part of me does wonder if I just want a T to always take my side and just fully support me regardless of my behavior. And yeah, I kind of do.
